[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 701917, member: 1550"] After my experience...and all we wanted to do was love a child who would have trouble getting a home due to age and other factors...i am never quiet about this. These children are only safe for strong adults, not afraid to use door alarms and to lock their bedroom doors at night, and in homers with no younger children or any animals. Another friend of mine had an eight year old foster child who burned her house down on purpose. Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD). While the fire fighters were there he acted like it was no big deal and said he was hungry and wanted to go to McDonald's. Her husband and kids had to hold her back from hurting him. The kid left and the family.lived in a motel for two months while the house was rebuilt. I met up with his social worker when he was sixteen. She and I could not directly use names but she managed to convey to me that the boy has not improved and is still puzzled about why everyone was upset when he set the house on fire. "They got a brand new house out of it. Didn't they?" Never expresses remorse about anything. Is in residential treatment. Lots of therapy but no change. Do run. It is too big a risk if you want a baby and pets. Hugs to you. So sorry. [/QUOTE]
